A bizarre 1996 Science Fiction film (based off an old trading card series by Topps) by [[Tim Burton]] that depicted an invasion on the planet Earth by gleefully destructive Martians. Notable for its all-star ensemble cast, including [[Jack Nicholson]], Lukas Haas, Annette Bening, Jim Brown, Pierce Brosnan, [[Sarah Jessica Parker]], Glenn Close, Martin Short, [[Michael J. Fox]], [[Jack Black]], [[Natalie Portman]] |
